Welcome to East Coast Thunder Kennels
We want our kennel and our web-site to be dedicated to competition; weight pulling, obedience and personal protection. Sports such as these can be enjoyed by the whole family. These are sports where your son, daughter, wife, along with yourself can be involved. When you attend an event, look around, you will see everyone from young kids to grandpa and grammas participating in some way or another. We will slowly but surely continue to add new competition events. We will try to not only have still pictures but lots of videos.

We choose our dogs from the best, proven lines in sanctioned events. We are very impressed with the Leavitt Bulldog. They have proven themselves in sanctioned events of the IWPA, APA and Shutzhund training. TVB Eli (Owned and trained by Maurice Mayo of ECTK) is proving to be a fantastic weight puller already with many wins. We also train in Schutzhund obedience, and personal protection.

David Leavitt has done a lot of research in order to develop the Leavitt Bulldogs. He has studied period statues, paintings, prints, and older dog books. Through his endless studies he has found that Bulldog sizes varied during different periods, due to changes in the way the baits were staged. Like all old working breeds, Bulldogs were not bred to a strict standard. Their distinctive body, head, and temperament, were dictated instead by the work they would be called upon to do.

We will not only have my own dogs but you will be able to watch the great pulls of TVB Dozer and Granite, owned and trained by Jim Walters of M.A.C.K. ( Mountain Air Competition Kennels) who as been a great inspiration to our training program, plus many more video's and pictures as they are made available to us.

If you should have any question about training, up-coming events or stud service, feel free to
contact me. Meanwhile please enjoy our site.
